Which Shop Manual ?

Post by irontwist »

Hello Sweptliners, My W-200 is registered as a 1967 but according to the online registry specifies it as a 1966. It has the small rear window and refrigerator door handles, no back up lights, 318 with WW-3 Strongberg 2 barrel carb and Polly Head engine.
My question is the factory shop manual on the front cover at the bottom is printed Serial Numbers Starting with xxx-1543000. My S.O. NO. is 11122154. Is this the correct manual for my Power Wagon? Subtracting one number from the other the sum being 6724 makes me wonder if it is a 1965 shop manual? Thanks for every ones help on this forum, a great resource.

The SO number on the plate is NOT the serial number. The SN for your truck would start with 228, then 7 digits after that, aka the VIN.
Refer handles makes it absolutely a 66. Push button handles started in 67, no bull.
fyi, SO is Sales Order number and was just a reference between the dealer and factory with no use after delivery to the buyer.

That's what it says on the bottom of my 66 manual. Doesn't make any difference as the trucks were basically identical from mid 65-66.
